Computer techniques engineering sits at the meeting point of hardware and software — the systems where a program has to run on a specific piece of physical equipment, reliably and within real constraints.
The programme covers digital design, embedded systems, networking and programming, with laboratory work throughout so that graduates can build, configure and troubleshoot real systems rather than only describe them.

A Message from the Head of Department
Computer techniques engineering is defined by the point where software meets physical hardware — where a program has to run reliably on a specific device, within real constraints of memory, timing and power.
Our programme keeps students close to that boundary. Laboratory work runs alongside theory throughout, covering microcontrollers, networks and digital design, so that graduates can build and debug systems rather than only reason about them.
Iraq's demand for capable computing professionals continues to grow across industry, government and services. This department exists to meet it.
